Rebate? Will this product get rebates like all of the other Apple computers? I'm waiting to purchase until a rebate appears, so an answer would be great. :)

I just went through the Rebate website and it took my info. Ask me in 8-10 weeks ifI actually get a check. I've been burned too many times on Frys rebates...

Yes, I tried several times to download the rebate...I entered all the detail requested. I am still unable to download the rebate for the 150 dollars. How long did it take before you received your rebate?

My experience has been similar to Jason's... I bought an iBook G4 off of Amazon a few years back, and I *did* get the $100 rebate.Took like 8 weeks, IIRC.

Thats frys, amazons stuff always comes for me. I got mine a good while ago, was less than 8 weeks for sure. And I didn't have to mail anything or damage my box, it was all automated.

Hey man I just checked what you said and its true...I bought mine less than two months ago and it said newest version...amazon probably differences their bundles this way...the computer came completely new and in perfect condition its the latest model and its extremely thin...the retina display will blow your head off its gorgeous...I have some pictures on instagram if you want to see it... @wakiko007 hope I helped answering your question

Careful, several people have said the rebate is not included in the box and Amazon makes no warranties that the rebate is included. I'm in the same boat, I want to upgrade over 2007 and wanted a hard copy but it looks like the rebate might not be available via amazon.

I have purchased 2 macs from Amazon with no problems, both were new non refurb units. Just make sure you buy it from Amazon and not an Amazon reseller

Good point. It's October and the Amazon iMacs still ship with Snow Leopard? Every other reseller I've checked is offering models with Lion pre-installed. You guys just lost a sale.

I called Neat Receipts asking about the same thing. Short answer No. But they claim to be working on an Apple OS version - due out in the next 12 months. Don't hold your breathe - they told me the same thing last year. You can send an email to sales@neatreceipts.com and ask to be put on the notification list. I guess if enough people request it they'll actually put one out. I certainly hope so.

I really don't know for I have only had this computer a short time. Have him call Apple.

I contacted Customer Service. The June 3 date is correct... the rebate is NOT in effect.I doubt they're intentionally trying to trick us; it's probably just a mistake. But, I contacted customer service, and they clearly know about it, so let's see how long it takes them to fix it...

Ordered mine on May 23rd, I have a shipping date of July 21st. Oy vey. I am tempted to cancel the order altogether, forget about the rebate and suck up the sales tax at the Apple Store...Please anyone who receives theirs, please post here so we have a little more visibility on our orders (as opposed to: "will ship some time in the next two months"!)

Thank you for the update. Major bummer - Apple seems to be screwing Amazon and the other retailers by holding out inventory of the new iMacs from them. I don't want to wait another month + either, so I'll probably get one from the Apple store too, and suffer the $150 tax hit. Booooo to Apple on this one.

Thanks Bobster- I was also wondering where the link to the rebate had disappeared to. Why is the price of this item so labile? Yesterday, when I ordered it, it was $299 and today it's $364!

Amazon now shows only 16 Imacs available and it says "order soon". Usually when they are running low and expect to get more it says "more on the way" after "order soon". I wonder if this is a sign that Apple is putting out a refresh soon?

Hello Susana, Thanks for your interest! We are only reselling this used item, so we are not 100% sure about the answer to this question. However, Apple should know, so we recommend you contact them directly about this. Have a great day!

I believe that Preston Christian has the correct response to your inquiry. Unless Apple has recently changed their policies, his response is accurate.

I did. The rebate was an important part of my decision Sunday. In fact I just got on the computer now to find out details about the rebate because the purchase process did not indicate anything about it. The only description I saw was the mention of a $200 mail in rebate. What that indicated to me that there was a rebate of money, not credit for another product. Where can I track this issue?

I printed my receipt from the amazon website, but didn't circle the price for the rebate (must have missed that in the instructions). Hopefully they can just read it off the receipt for the rebate. I read on one of the reviews that theirs came with a dvd. Did anyone get a dvd?

I also wanted to find out about the same seller as he was selling Apple MacBook Pro MB985LL/A 15.4-Inch Laptop for only $1000. Which is unbelievable. Please let me know if anyone knows anything about this seller whether its just a scam or not?
